About this cottage rental
This charming cottage and guest house, "The North Forty", was built in 1956 and is a Northwoods classic. Nestled in the tall pines of northern Wisconsin, the spacious 2-bedroom, 2 full-bath main cottage has a living/dining room, large fully-equipped eat-in kitchen and a large screened-in porch. Two wood-burning fireplaces, one in the kitchen and one in the living room provide the perfect ambiance and warmth for a crisp Northwoods morning. Sweeping lake views can be seen from almost every room. Just steps away is a lakefront guest house with one bedroom, one full-bath, and fully-equipped kitchenette as well as a lower level bunk room. Crystal Lake is a small private lake with no public access. It offers terrific swimming, fishing, canoeing and kayaking. Guests of “The North Forty” have often referred to it as “a little piece of paradise.” Sleeping up to 8, "The North Forty" is a wonderful setting for family reunions, couples trips, girlfriend outings, fishing/hunting trips and summer vacations.

Another amazing stay at The North 40! What a beautiful time of year - the weather was perfect, and the cabin delivered as always. Clean and well equipped with everything we needed. Enjoyed early morning fires in the kitchen with coffee, hiking to town and all the wonderful close by supper clubs! Did a wonderful day trip to the Porcupine Mountains which can’t be beat during the Fall season. Our host, Carol, was amazing as always. Truly heaven on earth!

This was our family's 3rd annual summer stay & somehow it was even better than before. This is such a great property, near town but yet quietly tucked away. The resident loons literally greeted us at the pier upon arrival and entertained us all week. Along with the Eagle and Osprey. Not to mention the plentiful pan fish at the pier!
We loved the new mattresses & the addition of Starlink wifi . It cooperated nicely even with the remote location, not that we used it much. The screened porch however was used a lot!! Along with the kayaks! It is just like a family cabin should be. Comfortable bedding, plenty of linens, soaps, & all the kitchen items you'd need. The well seasoned cast iron fry pans made the best pancakes and eggs! Hated to leave at weeks end!
